The Force Awakens General Star Wars Episode VII News/Speculation Thread

[AnneFan]

Just realized something,

TPM was released 16 years after ROTJ

Star Wars Episode VII will be released 16 years after TPM.

Very interesting.

Today marked the moment Star Wars became an ongoing Bond like film franchise.

I would seriously mark out if they did something like this on the big screen in live action format:

Wish I could see it at work. What is it?

As more of a classic trilogy fan, this is right up my alley. I'd like to see Luke most of all. I don't think other characters like Han, if Harrison is up for it, would be detrimental to the movie. Even a cameo would do. The fans would go nuts. There'd still be plenty of room for the new breed of Star Wars characters to breathe.

I get Luke as a Force Ghost, I'm set. Can't care less if nobody else shows up.

It wouldn't bother me if we had returning actors or not, as long as the story is good.

 

[AnneFan]

I'm cool with a new cast, it's necessary. But I'd see returning cast members as a nice bonus.

Am I the only one who finally wants to see Sam Witwer as Starkiller in a Movie?

It's the Cinematic Scenes for Star Wars Old Republic Game that deals with the Sith Army going up against the Jedi Army.

Hell, what I'd do to see two jedi's going up against two dark jedis or sith at the same time in the same place.

I wanted him in a TV Series, not sure about EpVII, though.

 

[Nathan]

Oh, yeah, wasn't there supposed to be a TV series? Whatever happened to that?

Ah, then I've seen it. And it looks amazing indeed. An army vs army lightsaber battle is long overdue. LONG.

Too expensive. Lucas wanted every episode to look like a prequel flick. It's not cancelled, but it's not happening yet.

 

[Roose Bolton]

Loooong!!!!!



Tom Hardy as Darth Bane

Indeed, the most important part of all.

If they're doing original stories, I can still see EU aspects being woven in, just not being wholly dedicated.

Icy what you did there.

It's already been confirmed it's not an adaptation of anything(s), so at most we'll get a couple EU characters in it.

I'm not exactly sure how, but I'd love for Thrawn to some how be incorporated.

I was being serious

 

[AnneFan]

I'm happy they're going the original story route. The content in the films themselves should always be the real guide.

 

[Gianakin_]

Asm uch as I want something completely new, it saddens me that'll mean no awesome characters like him. Or perhaps MJ. On the other hand, they may decide to piss on the existing post_RotJ EU and just take any character they want and do stuff with them. Lots of books going down the toilet, but more room for my porn.

Darth Bane is tall.

Are Disney hoping to create their own Star Wars cinematic universe, akin to Marvel's?

Eh, let them do the ST first, and then they can do anything they like. For now, I'm calling BS.

 

[Hyde]

It's from THR, so it has some credibility. Plus they say it's only an option, one I hope they don't take.
